ABSTRACT
We report successful transcatheter closure of a post-MI ventricular septal rupture acutely following unsuccessful surgical repair. Catheter closure was accomplished by the use of a 26-mm Amplatzer atrial septal occluder. Initial attempts to close the defect with the use of 28-mm and 33-mm CARDIOSEAL were unsuccessful. Closure technique, immediate and long-term follow-up outcomes are reported.
